Intel Kokoro TTS Model Staging
This folder is the provider-local staging area for the Intel Kokoro TTS benchmark.
Runtime layout:

The checked-in provider contract intentionally keeps this folder lightweight. The benchmark materializes the real model payloads here so subsequent runs stay provider-local and can run offline after staging.
These files hold source payloads and optional OpenVINO IRs, not machine-specific compiled binaries. OpenVINO still compiles for the active Intel device locally at runtime, and any generated compiler cache stays machine-local.
